do the text, too

TFW a justice org’s e-mail newsletter contains no text and is all remote loading images, so I can’t see squat.

Strangely, pulling up the event, it says it will be closed captioned in multiple languages.

Moral of the story: put the text in the newsletter for the hard of seeing. Don’t rely on images only. Text breaks the sight barrier better.

Sometimes I want to say, “you must be one of those Covid stay-at-homes with a guaranteed income dictating with a snarl to the entire world what to do.”

i can’t see your newsletter

There’s a favorite digital newsletter I receive which used to come in text-copyable PDF but has switched to a “presenter” called Canva.

In this new format, I cannot enlarge the text to accommodate my vision or save it locally for preservation and future study.

Also, the presenter sometimes leaves text missing off the page breaks or has it hidden under the images.

I so wish that organizations would stop using a “helper” service for everything and just stay simple.
